What is a floor pivot?
A floor pivot is a price level worked out from the prior session's high, low and close. Traders use it as the day's reference point: price above it tends to favour buyers, price below it favours sellers, and the resistance (R1, R2) and support (S1, S2) levels around it mark likely turning points.
